RISK DISCLOSURE STATEMENT FOR FUTURES AND OPTIONS ON FUTURES
This disclosure is provided by Lucid Capital in accordance with regulatory requirements and industry best practices. Please read this document carefully before engaging in futures or options trading or using any of our educational services.
Substantial Risk of Loss
Trading futures and options on futures involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage that is often obtainable in futures trading can work against you as well as for you. The use of leverage can lead to large losses as well as gains.
Market Risk
Futures and options markets are subject to rapid and unpredictable price movements. Factors including economic events, geopolitical developments, weather conditions, and market sentiment can cause significant price volatility. You may lose more than your initial investment or deposit.
Leverage Risk
Because of the leverage involved in futures trading, a small price movement can result in proportionally large losses. You may be required to deposit additional funds to maintain your position. Failure to do so may result in the liquidation of your position at a loss.
Liquidity Risk
Under certain market conditions, it may be difficult or impossible to liquidate a position. Insufficient market liquidity may prevent timely execution of orders or result in execution at prices significantly different from expected prices.
Electronic Trading Risk
Electronic trading systems may experience delays, failures, or errors. System-related issues may prevent you from entering or exiting positions at desired prices or times.
Past Performance
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Hypothetical or simulated performance results have inherent limitations and do not represent actual trading. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.
